ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation of the serum levels of aminotransferases and their ratios with liver inflammation activity in pediatric chronic hepatitis B （pCHB） patients， and to provide a basis for selecting the dominant population for treatment. MethodsThis study was conducted among 1 267 pCHB patients who were admitted to The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2010 to August 2022 and these patients did not receive antiviral therapy. The patients were analyzed in terms of demographic features， blood routine， blood biochemistry， HBV serological markers， and liver biopsy data. According to liver inflammation activity based on liver biopsy， the patients were divided into no or mild inflammation activity （G0‍ ‍—‍ ‍G1） group and significant inflammation activity （G2‍ ‍—‍ ‍G4） group. The serum levels of aminotransferases and their ratios were compared between groups， and their correlation with liver inflammation activity in pCHB patients was analyzed. Additionally， the patients were stratified by the age， and the relationship between serum aminotransferase levels and liver inflammation activity was analyzed in each age group. For comparison of continuous data between two groups， the independent samples t-test was used when the data were normally distributed， while the Mann-Whitney U test was used when the data were not normally distributed； the chi-square test was employed for comparison of categorical data between two groups. A Spearman’s correlation analysis was performed for correlation assessment. ResultsAmong the 1 267 pCHB patients， there were 468 （36.9%） in the G0‍ ‍—‍ ‍G1 group and 799 （63.1%） in the G2‍ ‍—‍ ‍G4 group， and there were significant differences between the two groups in the levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， AST/ALT ratio， gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase （GGT）， total bilirubin， direct bilirubin， HBeAg quantification， low-density lipoprotein， and platelet count （PLT） （all P<0.05）. The correlation analysis showed that liver inflammation activity was negatively correlated with PLT and low-density lipoprotein （both P<0.05） and was positively correlated with GGT， total bilirubin， direct bilirubin， and HBeAg titer （all P<0.05）， while it was not significantly correlated with ALT， AST， and AST/ALT ratio （all P>0.05）. In the 0‍ ‍—‍ ‍12 years group， the 13‍ ‍—‍ ‍18 years male group， and the 13‍ ‍—‍ ‍18 years female group， liver inflammation activity aggravated with the increases in the serum levels of ALT and AST， and there were significant differences between groups （all P<0.05）. In the 0‍ ‍—‍ ‍12 years group， there was a significant difference in significant liver inflammation activity between the AST/ALT ratio >1 group and the AST/ALT ratio ≤1 group （P<0.001）. Among the 1 267 patients， 447 （35.28%） had an ALT level of <2×upper limit of normal （ULN）， among whom 196 （43.85%） had G≥2 liver inflammation， accounting for 15.47% of all children enrolled. ConclusionLiver inflammation activity is not significantly correlated with ALT， AST， and AST/ALT ratio in pCHB patients， suggesting that the serum levels of aminotransferases cannot truly reflect liver inflammation activity in pCHB patients with an aminotransferase level of <2×ULN. In clinical practice， liver biopsy should be performed for children with an aminotransferase level of <2×ULN to clarify whether antiviral therapy should be performed.

Objectives:Fenofibric acid is extracted from the widely used hypolipemic fenofibrate,nowadays being approved for marketing around numerous nations and regions,nonetheless not in China.Present trial evaluated the efficacy and safety in the Chinese hypertriglyceridemia population. Methods:This is a multi-center,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial.Patients from 3 different cohorts,including severe hypertriglyceridemia(HTG),moderate HTG and mixed-dyslipidemia(MD),were randomized at 1:1 ratio to receive fenofibric acid 135 mg or placebo daily for 12 weeks.The primary endpoint was the percentage change of triglyceridemia(TG)from baseline at week 12.Secondary endpoints were the percentage changes of other blood lipid indexes.At the same time,the incidence of medical adverse events was observed. Results:Among the three cohorts of patients with severe HTG(n=52),moderate HTG(n=23)and MD(n=52),the TG levels in the fenofibric acid-treated group decreased by(49.12±29.19)%,(49.95±25.19)%and(49.79±19.28)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks,while the corresponding placebo groups decreased by(18.88±40.69)%,(8.11±29.86)%and increased by(10.42±73.04)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks.The differences between treatment and placebo groups were statistically significant(P<0.017 for severe HTG cohort,P<0.05 for moderate and MD cohort).The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)in the fenofibric acid-treated group increased by(25.51±21.45)%,(24.55±24.73)%,and(23.60±27.38)%,and the placebo group increased by(1.91±20.42)%,(2.40±9.32)%and(7.13±19.12)%,respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05).In the fenofibric acid group,adverse events with incidence>5%included upper respiratory tract infection(10.9%),abdominal pain(6.3%),and increased serum creatinine levels(6.3%),rates of adverse events were similar between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions:Fenofibric acid can significantly reduce triglycerides and elevate HDL-C levels safely in Chinese patients with severe to moderate HTG without statin or MD patients on top of statin therapy.

Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of esketamine combined with hydromorphone postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)on depression in elderly pa-tients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.Methods A total of 180 elderly patients,44 males and 136 fe-males,aged 65-80 years,BMI 18.5-35.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,undergoing total knee arthroplasty(TKA)under elective general anesthesia combined with adductor block from J uly 2023 to Sep-tember 2023.Patients were divided into three groups by random number table method;control group(group C),esketamine 0.5 mg/kg group(group E1),and esketamine 1.0 mg/kg group(group E2),60 patients in each group.After operation,groups C,E1 and E2 were given hydromorphone 0.2 mg/kg,esketamine 0.5 mg/kg combined with hydromorphone 0.2 mg/kg,and esketamine 1.0 mg/kg combined with hydromor-phone 0.2 mg/kg to receive PCIA,respectively,and the three groups were diluted to 100 ml with normal saline.Parameters were set as follows.The background infusion rate was 1.5 ml/h,and the single press dose was 1.5 ml,and the locking time was 15 minutes.If the VAS pain score at rest was greater than or equal to 4 points and the analgesic effect of pressing the PCIA pump was not effective,then intramuscular injection of tramadol 0.1 g was used for remedial analgesia.Hamilton depression scale(HAMD)score was performed 1 day,3 and 7 days after surgery.Depressive state was classified as having HAMD score ≥ 8 points.VAS pain scores at rest were performed 1 day,3 and 7 days after surgery.The number of depression within 7 days after surgery,the number of effective(D1)and total(D2)pump compressions and D1/D2 within 3 days after surgery,the number of rescue analgesia,the occurrence of adverse reactions such as tra-madol dosage,dizziness,headache,multiple dreams,hallucinations,nausea and vomiting were recorded.Results Twenty-one patients(35％)in group C experienced depression,7 patients(12％)in group E1,and 8 patients(13％)in group E2 during 3 days after surgery.Eight patients(13％)in group C experi-enced depression,1 patients(2％)in group E1,and 2 patients(3％)in group E2 during 7 days after sur-gery.Compared with group C,the incidence of depression 3 and 7 days after surgery,rescue analgesia rate in group E1 were significantly decreased,the incidence of depression 3 and 7 days after surgery,dizziness,headache,and dreaminess within 3 days after surgery in group E2 were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of depression and VAS pain scores between group El and group E2 at 1,3,and 7 days after surgery.Conclusion Esketamine 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg for PCIA in elderly patients after TKA can improve postoperative depression,while esketamine 1.0 mg/kg can reduce the incidence of postoperative dizziness,headache,and multiple dreams.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups. ConclusionGZSYZM combined with fire needling at pain points and "shoulder three acupoints" can effectively reduce the levels of serum inflammatory factors and pain mediators， alleviate pain， and improve shoulder joint function in patients with periarthritis of shoulder with wind-cold-dampness impediment syndrome.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of esketamine on extremity ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury in elderly patients undergoing total knee replacement.Methods:Sixty elderly patients of both sexes, aged 65-80 yr, with body mass index <35 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective unilateral total knee replacement under neuraxial anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups according to the random number table method: control group (C group) and esketamine group (S group), with 30 cases in each group. Esketamine 0.3 mg/kg was intravenously infused before tourniquet inflation in group S. Immediately after the end of operation, the two groups received adductor block with 0.5% ropivacaine 15 ml under ultrasound guidance. And then patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia solution included sufentanil 1.5 μg/kg in 100 ml of normal saline in group C and sufentanil 1.5 μg/kg and esketamine 0.75 mg/kg in 100 ml of normal saline in group S. The background infusion rate was 1.5 ml/h, the patient-controlled analgesia dose was 1.5 ml, and the lockout interval was 15 min in the two groups. When the visual analogue scale score at rest≥ 4 points within 3 days after surgery, ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg was intravenously injected for rescue analgesia. Blood samples from the radial artery were collected for blood gas analysis at 30 min before tourniquet inflation(T 0), 30 min after tourniquet inflation(T 1), and 3 min, 30 min and 24 h (T 4) after tourniquet release (T 2-4), and PaO 2 and PaCO 2 were recorded. The alveola-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference, oxygenation index and respiratory index were calculated. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected at T 0, T 3 and T 4 for determination of serum endothelin-1 and malondialdehyde by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The requirement for rescue analgesia and occurrence of dizziness, hallucinations and pulmonary complications within 3 days after surgery were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, alveola-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference was significantly decreased at T 1-3, respiratory index was decreased, oxygenation index was increased at T 2, 3, and serum endothelin-1 and malondialdehyde concentrations were decreased at T 3, 4, and the rate of postoperative rescue analgesia was decreased in group S( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative dizziness, hallucinations, and pulmonary complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Esketamine can reduce extremity ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury in elderly patients undergoing total knee replacement, and the mechanism may be related to regulating vascular endothelial function and reducing lipid peroxidation.
